Tour description provided by Viator

Take off, soar and enjoy breathtaking views of the Swiss Alps. Experience the fascination of flying during a paragliding tandem flight with pilots of Air-Davos Paragliding. This thrilling outdoor activity guarantees unforgettable moments.

We meet at the valley station of the Jakobshorn cable car in Davos. The cable car brings us to the top of the Jakobshorn Peak where our launch sites are located. Once arrived at the top the pilot will make a final check on the weather and wind conditions and decide about the most suitable launch site. From our launch sites you have a spectacular view. With an height difference of approx. 1,000 meters you will have enough time to enjoy the flight.Before take off the passenger will get a detailed briefing about the tandem flight including launch and landing procedures. For the start you have to run a couple of steps together with the pilot until the wing comes overhead into the flying position and we are lifted of the ground.During the flight you can talk with the pilot and tell him your special wishes: i.e. take control and steer the glider by yourself, feel G-Forces during thrilling maneuvers or just enjoy the landscape during a peaceful flight.In summer the landing site is a large lawn situated in front of Bolgen Plaza Restaurant. The winter landing site is located next to the chairlift Carjöl. Both landing sites are within 5 minutes walking distance from the Jakobshorn valley station and the train station Davos Platz.For the flight we recommend to wear warm outdoor-clothes (pullover, jacket), good shoes and sunglasses. Pictures from the flight are included. Not included in the price is your cable car ticket. Cable car ticket prices vary depending on the season (discounts available with Davos Klosters guest card).The activity duration is approx. 2 hours. Air-Time is 15 to 35 minutes (depending on thermal and wind conditions).
